He faces a future of cold uncertainty, until her warm embrace…
Part of a Viking crew of warriors cursed by an evil sorceress, Gunnar the Red must toil through eternity as half-man, half-beast, living out his days as a great bull, while his nights are spent in human form. And though he keeps mostly to the wilds, his heart yearns for the simple comforts of man—and the chance to redeem a tragic past…
Seeking refuge from a bitter winter in the welcoming hall of Richmond Castle, Gunnar rescues two maidens when a blaze erupts—and his destiny is forever altered. For one of the young women is Lady Eleanor de Neville, who is immediately entranced by her rescuer. Her kiss of gratitude—the brief touch of her lips against his cheek—awakens a longing in her soul. And even when she is betrothed to another, Eleanor never forgets her courageous knight.
When Gunnar rides back into Eleanor’s life, she is consumed by undeniable passion. And though his body surrenders to her every touch, Gunnar’s heart remains imprisoned by the curse—and only the magic of the truest love can save him…

Love the tat action on the left hip! (My left, not his left.) The hip my hand would curl around as my thumb swiped lightly, tracing the design…
Phew, got away from myself for a second.
*Clears throat* Um, nice cover!

Hmm…There aren’t actually any tattoos on him. I think what you’re seeing is the shadow of where the lower ripples of his six-pack meet his deeply cut hip bone in that sideways Y thing. Muscle. Pure muscle.
But yeah, same thumb swipe would be appropriate. And a lot more textural…

I’m just getting started with the first book, so I’ll let you know what I think of this cover when I discover whether or not it does Gunnar justice.
